IIHS Reports Improvement in Child Seat Installation Hardware

However, child safety seats are only effective if they’re installed correctly. One way to help ensure they are is by using a car’s LATCH, which stands for Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children. This installation hardware can make it much easier for someone to secure a child safety seat into a car.

In 2015, the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) launched its ratings of child seat installation hardware. Out of 102 vehicles rated at that time, the majority were poor or marginal.

It’s a different story today: Out of the 170 current models evaluated in 2016, most are good or acceptable.
